Family, Friends & Fellow Officers Remember...

Another Fallen Hero. Rest in Peace Brother.
When I saw on the news of this Tragic incident, I prayed that Officer Schultz would fully recover. But after seeing the face of the Commander , as he as often interviewed on TV, I knew that Officer Schultz had lost his battle. So I prayed that his death would not be painful. I hope that his wife & family finds comfort, knowing that many of us were praying for Don and for them during this crisis!

TO:The family;loved ones;friends and department members : A POLICE OFFICER'S PRAYER:--- O,gentle Lord! Keep the day/night watch with me.As I begin my tour of duty,I ask your protection from all mental,physical and spiritual harm. Sustain me with the knowledge that I am doing your work,endeavoring to keep peace among your people. Help me to be just as I enforce the law without prejudice or favor to anyone. May I be courageous but not reckless in carrying out my duties. Let me respond to all calls with haste realizing that so many are dependent upon me for life and safety. Support me with your consoling power when I am tempted to think no one really cares and that I am taken for granted.Sustain in me the conviction that so many thousands do care and are grateful for my presence.Grant that I may be loyal to my partner and my fellow officers and that I may back them up effectively when called upon for assistance. Lord,I ask that I may return safely,after my tour of duty,to my loved ones and those who love me. I pray that I may be a good and honorable police officer;and after my tour of duty is over here on earth,may I enjoy the peace and happiness of heaven that you have promised to those who serve you well. AMEN. *** REST IN PEACE*** Sent to you by the father of First Class Officer J.D.Koeppen,Capital City Raleigh NC and Trooper D.C.Koeppen , NJ State Police.
